International Midwives Day 2025
International Midwives Day is a time for midwives to reflect on their peers, forge new connections within and beyond the profession, and raise awareness about the vital role midwives play globally. This year's theme is 'Midwives: Critical in Every Crisis.'
The Royal College of Midwives (RCM) is encouraging all RCM branches and members to work together to host local events in their workplaces like webinars or roadshows.
The International Confederation of Midwives (ICM) is also hosting a virtual event on Monday 5 May and will bring together midwives, experts, and the public for an engaging and interactive exploration of midwives’ indispensable role in humanitarian settings. Participants will gain an in-depth understanding of the challenges midwives face and the lifesaving care they provide during crises.
